An understanding of the morphology of congenital heart defects is essential for the practice of pediatric cardiology. The anatomy of cardiac lesions is, by its nature, three-dimensional and the introduction of imaging techniques, including echocardiography, which can represent cardiac lesions three-dimensionally have the potential to refine diagnosis and understanding of spatial relationships which is essential to plan surgical or catheter intervention [1].
